How to prepare a nice cup of barley coffee?
Moreninha barley coffee comes in powder, which means that it can easily be used as an instant drink. Mix a couple of teaspoons (adjust by taste) with water or with milk and just stir it until it's nice and smooth. Add sugar according to your own taste.

*As a personal note, we often drink regular coffee or barley with Soy milk instead of water or regular milk, without any sugar. Soy milk is usually already sweet and it makes a naturally sweet and creamy drink. Very nice!

It is a great warm drink for breakfast, or a refreshing cold drink in summer days, with some ice and lemon.
